Connecting the SRX4100 Services Gateway Grounding Cable
To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure
proper operation, the services gateway must be adequately grounded before power is
connected. You must provide a grounding lug to connect the services gateway to earth
ground.
You ground the services gateway by connecting a grounding cable to earth ground and
then attaching it to the chassis grounding point located on the back panel of the device
using an M5 x 10 mm grounding screw.
CAUTION: Before you connect power to the services gateway, a licensed
electrician must attach a cable lug to the grounding cable that you supply.
A cable with an incorrectly attached lug can damage the services gateway
(for example, by causing a short circuit).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding wrist strap
•
Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
•
14 AWG single-strand wire grounding cable
•
Grounding lug (ring-type, vinyl-insulated TV14-6R lug, or equivalent)
•
One metric M5 x 10 mm grounding screw
